To all whom fit-may conce/rn:

Be it known that I, BENEDICT J. SMlTH, of Osage Mission, in the county of 'Neosho and .State of Kansas, have invented a newy and valuable Improvement yin Ghurns and I do lhereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the construction and operation of theV same, reference, being had to the annexed drawing making a part of this specication, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon.

Figure l of the drawing is a representation of a central vertical longitudinal section ofl my invention.

Figure 2 is a top view-ot' the same.

My invention relates to churns, and consists, mainly, in the construction and novel arrangement of hollow tubes descending from the churn-cover,designed to regulate the temperature of the crean'., and to operate iu an eicient manner to break the butter capsules, and, in connection therewith, thc vibrating case and removable churn-box.

'lhe letter A of the drawing designates the bed of my invention, to which is attached the support B.

C designates the drive-wheel, operated by the handle D, and arranged to engage with the teeth of the vertical pinion E below it.

The shaft of the pinion E ends in a crank, h, which is pivoted to the pitman k, attached to the swinging case H, which is suspended between `the supportingframes G G by the arms l Z.

'The churn-box K, which contains the cream, is placed within the case H, and can readily be removed therefrom when necessary.

The cream is agitated by the hollow tubes -z z, attached to the cover c of the churnlbox, andl so arranged that the vibratory motion of the box will,"

throw the cream against and between them.

These hollow tubes are closed at the bottom, and

adapted to hold hot or cold water in case it should be desired to raise or lower the temperature of they cream.

fhat I claim as my invention, and desireto s ecure by Letters Patent, is

In combination with the vibrating platform H, snspended by the pivot-ed arms l to the frame G, the removable ohnrn-box K, provided with the coverfu having the hollow descending tubes z e, when constructed B. J. SMITH.v
